Did you know that every time the Sacramento Kings light the beam, the company behind it is right here in Folsom, CA? 💜
That’s right, Nu-Salt Laser International, a Folsom-based laser company, is the mastermind behind the beam that lights up the Sacramento sky after every Kings win. Recently, they tested an even more powerful version of their laser, called the “Laser Space Cannon,” at Beals Point on Folsom Lake, showcasing a full spectrum of colors. Not only are they repping Folsom on a major league stage, but their innovation is shining bright, literally. Talk about hometown power!

WELCOME TO FOLSOM No. 1 Best Place to Raise a Family in California – 2018 Wallethub
This is just one of the most recent accolades recognizing Folsom as an all star California community. Located at the base of the Sierra foothills along the border of the Sacramento region, this community is a vibrant city distinguished by its rich heritage and outstanding quality of life for its residents.
Where else in California (or the nation for that matter) can you draw a 30-mile radius circle on a map and experience cycling, world-class wine tasting, water sports on two lakes, fun events, unlimited shopping and dining and a rich history of gold mining, railroads and of course, famous Folsom Prison.
Corporations, visitors and residents come to Folsom because of such amenities as a college campus, vibrant economy, nearby transportation hubs such as an international airport, public transit and highways, natural amenities and of course, location, location and location. With less than a 30 minute drive to skiing or wine tasting and a little over an hour drive to Lake Tahoe or the Bay Area, Folsom is an ideal location..
Folsom is home to world-traded companies such as Intel, Gekkeikan, Toshiba, Voxpro and Kikkoman Foods plus California leaders such as VSP Sacramento Optical Technology Center, California Independent Systems Operators and Safe Credit Union.
The Greater Folsom Partnership, comprised of the Folsom Chamber of Commerce, Folsom Tourism Bureau and Folsom Economic Development Corporation, each play a role in the daily activities essential to the city’s quality of life and economic vitality. We salute the businesses featured within this document. Their support helped create this comprehensive and informative guide for the community.
